A total of 73 satellites of different shapes and sizes take their spot aboard a Fregat-M upper stage with a purpose-built payload dispenser for a cluster mission in July 2017, ranking second for the most satellites launched in one go. The primary payload of the mission will be the 600-Kilogram Kanopus V-IK remote sensing satellite, joined by five microsatellites between 18 and 120 Kilograms and 67 CubeSats for operators around the world.
